Embedded cryptosystems show increased vulnerabilities to implementation attacks such as power analysis. CMOS technology trends are causing increased process variations which impac...
In double patterning lithography (DPL), coloring conflict and stitch minimization are the two main challenges. Post layout decomposition algorithm [1] [2]may not be enough to achi...
Clock skew minimization is always very important in the clock tree synthesis. Due to clock gating, the clock tree may include different types of logic gates, e.g., AND gates, OR g...
Many recent techniques for timing analysis under variability, in which delay is an explicit function of underlying parameters, may be described as parameterized timing analysis. T...
Boolean function bi-decomposition is a fundamental operation in logic synthesis. A function f(X) is bi-decomposable under a variable partition XA, XB, XC on X if it can be written...
